MOVING PICTURES
Operator In Community Building
Has Wide Experience and He
Is Willing To Tell the Public
How Machine Works.
EVERYTHING THE LATEST
Have you met Mr. Hazel Horton, the
genial operator of the moving picture
machine in the Community Building?
y-; '\ A natty young man, a civil engineer
by. profession, and a master mind
•when it comes to discussing the proper
projection of a picture on tne silver
ecreen he -will tell you that the room.
/•wherein he works in the big building
j is modern in every respeot, and ranks
/ in the- class of the best equipped
/ booths in the country. And as he
} talks he bubbles over with enthusiasm.
V* He loves the game, and he gives it
!the best of service.
1 There are so many angles—il we
may use the term—in the handling of
ai> moving picture machine that is it
best to remain silent while the operator' talks. So telling Mr. Horton to
)' explain while The Sun writer listened
the following facts were gleaned about
a machine the average person knows
little or nothing.
The most essential requirements for
good projection is a constant, continuous supply of direct current. Direct
current is far superior to alternating
.''*.' , current for obtaining a strong, clear
- yiluminatioh on the screen. The direct
, '' ' ' "current arc for a given candle-power
and illumination on the screen requires only approximately one-third
as many amperes as the alternating
current arc. Very few theaters can
obtain direct current and no theaters
are furnished with direct current at
the proper arc voltage; therefore, a
"Westinghouse Motor-Generator set
was installed to produce direct current
for the big DeLuxe Arc Lamp on the
projection machine.
An Expensive Projector
The Motiograph DeLuxe is an expensive projector seldom seen in any
projection rooms except the very
best. It is a machine of unusual ar-
I tistic design, is roomy, and easily ac~
"^ .- cessible, besides being massive and
rigid in construction. In the design of
this machine not a single part has
been overlooked to help the operator
do his work more efficiently.
Few people, unfamiliar with motion
' ■ . ■ picture equipment, seldom think a-r
they comfortably sit and enjoy some
picture, of the delicate mechanism,
the power expended, the patience and
,.:-" vigilance required on the part of the
p operator to successfully pioject some
i| story as told in pictures upon thous-
'•i.j atlas of feet of film. An audience mjI-
?".•'; dom thinks of the manager who'se-
\l lects and endeavors to place before
\>-•;'■ them reels of such quality as the
•-. standard of his picture house main
tains. It is no easy task to pick good
feature pictures when one has to rely
upon the advice of critics and Boo icing Agents, and much credit should
be given to Mr. Casady for obtaining
such features as have already been
she wn in' the Community Building.
His purpose is to select pictures that
art- constrnetive and not destructive
to the nriinds of every child and citizen of this community.
Reels of Various Sizes
Reel* aie made ia various sizes
with only their diameters varying.
The sizes are as follows: 10", 14", and
16" holding 1000, 2000, and 3000 feet
of film respectively. A feature usually consists of several parts which
are nnmbered ccnsecotively. A pan
asnsaUy consists of 1080 feet ef film
or one red. One pktmre measures approximately 7-8" mUte hf 3-4" high,
and there are approximately eight pictures to every 6" ef Sim, therefore,
there are approximately 16000 pictures in one part or reel of 1000 feet
of film. These vktanes are intermittently projected tbrevgh. a small aperture and lenses to the curtain at the
rate of about eighteen pictures per
second, provided they are ran at a
speed of fifteen nunntes per 1000 fe-jt
of film. 1000 feet of film may be ran
at a faster rate of speed varying
from ten nihrotes to fifteen minutes.
While pictures are "being projected to
screen, the light zays from the Lamp
House pass through two convex or
condensing lenses and are concentrated in a. hot focus npon the aperture through which the film passes.
After passing through the film the
rays of light enter the concave projection lenses and pass out to the
screen. WMIe the film is in motion
the heat from the hot focus does no
damage, but should tbe reel stop the
light must he instantly shut off of it;
and in this machine a fire door automatically .operates, acting as a safeguard in case of carelessness un the
part of the operator. It is possible to
speed up or slow down the action in
a picture hy means of a speed control
device on the Motiograph, hat not to
a considerable extent. Slow motion
pictures and speedy pictures are the
result of the camera speed when
scenes are filmed.
The booth or projection room is of
modern, fireproof construction with all
openings and ventilators closed fay'
means oi sliding doors attached to
fusible links. There is a chemical tank
provided, which is to he used in case
of fire. An iron ladder to the roof
from which another iroa ladder extends to fire escape, provides an exit
for operator, in case fixe gets beyond
his control. The equipment listed he-
low is very expensive and af the beet
manufactured. The equipment is as
follows: Motiograph DeLuxe "Projection Machine, with DeLuxe Arc "Lamp,

The Salem football team, touted as
one of the fastest aggregations of
pigskin kickers in northeastern Ohio,
is .due to play the Tigers of North
Canton in North Canton on Saturday,
Oct. C. The game starts at 3:30. Keep
in mind the time: 3:30, and the scene
of battle will be Tiger field. ThU is
a contest the local lovers of the sport
should not miss, and tlie bigger the
crowd the better the players like it.
Won Opening Game
The North Canton Tigers won the
opening game on Tiger field last Saturday afternoon when they defeated
the Marlows of Akron, 6-0. The local
men had flashes at times that speaks
well for the future, and as the season
progresses The Sun will be greatly
disappointed if the Tigers don't land
en the top rung of the ladder of success. Fye's work was exceptionally
good, and we look for all of the squad
to be doing the gilt-edged stuff within
a few weeks.
The work of the Marlows at times
was dangerous, but the Tigers were
too speedy and thought too fast for
the visitors. According to the dope
sheet of The Sun it is going to take
more than ordinary players to get
anywhere with the Tigers.

there are approximately 16000 pictures in one part or reel of 1000 feet
of film. These vktanes are intermittently projected tbrevgh. a small aperture and lenses to the curtain at the
rate of about eighteen pictures per
second, provided they are ran at a
speed of fifteen nunntes per 1000 fe-jt
of film. 1000 feet of film may be ran
at a faster rate of speed varying
from ten nihrotes to fifteen minutes.
While pictures are "being projected to
screen, the light zays from the Lamp
House pass through two convex or
condensing lenses and are concentrated in a. hot focus npon the aperture through which the film passes.
After passing through the film the
rays of light enter the concave projection lenses and pass out to the
screen. WMIe the film is in motion
the heat from the hot focus does no
damage, but should tbe reel stop the
light must he instantly shut off of it;
and in this machine a fire door automatically .operates, acting as a safeguard in case of carelessness un the
part of the operator. It is possible to
speed up or slow down the action in
a picture hy means of a speed control
device on the Motiograph, hat not to
a considerable extent. Slow motion
pictures and speedy pictures are the
result of the camera speed when
scenes are filmed.
The booth or projection room is of
modern, fireproof construction with all
openings and ventilators closed fay'
means oi sliding doors attached to
fusible links. There is a chemical tank
provided, which is to he used in case
of fire. An iron ladder to the roof
from which another iroa ladder extends to fire escape, provides an exit
for operator, in case fixe gets beyond
his control. The equipment listed he-

The Salem football team, touted as
one of the fastest aggregations of
pigskin kickers in northeastern Ohio,
is .due to play the Tigers of North
Canton in North Canton on Saturday,
Oct. C. The game starts at 3:30. Keep
in mind the time: 3:30, and the scene
of battle will be Tiger field. ThU is
a contest the local lovers of the sport
should not miss, and tlie bigger the
crowd the better the players like it.
Won Opening Game
The North Canton Tigers won the
opening game on Tiger field last Saturday afternoon when they defeated
the Marlows of Akron, 6-0. The local
men had flashes at times that speaks
well for the future, and as the season
progresses The Sun will be greatly
disappointed if the Tigers don't land
en the top rung of the ladder of success. Fye's work was exceptionally
good, and we look for all of the squad
to be doing the gilt-edged stuff within
a few weeks.
The work of the Marlows at times
was dangerous, but the Tigers were
too speedy and thought too fast for
the visitors. According to the dope
sheet of The Sun it is going to take
more than ordinary players to get
anywhere with the Tigers.
